  • What is the best off set for an escos wheel ?

    I've got my eye on a set of these SPEEDLINE MAGNESIUM 2021 TURINI TARMAC WHEELS below in 18x8.

    What is the best off set for an escos.

    Whats peoples thoughts on running spacers if i can't get the correct off set. Whats the safest width spacer you can fit.

    They are for a white escos so what colour would you go for WHITE/GOLD/SILVER ?

    I prefer et10 for a 8" wide Compomotive as they fill out the arches nicely.

    I'm running 17" compos with et35 on track, using a 20mm spacer making them et15.

      Depends on the original offset the wheel has. If it is high enough, then you can fit hub-centric spaces (which bolt to the hubs, and then the wheels bolt to the spacers).

      What are you trying to achieve?

      Nordschleife, there's only two barriers to worry about - the ones on the left and the ones on the right .

        Is et10 as far as you can go without sticking out beyond the wheel arch. Do you have any pics please.

                        Do 19x8 fit without any rubbing and what off set would be best for this size to be as flush as possible with the wing.

                        So what your saying is your off set is now et0 on the back and et4 on the front with the spacers.

                          A would go Rondell D J

                          If you go for these you will need to change all the suspension to get it to sit right and buy Ap's to go behind them

                          Will never end

                            I know. I've got some AP stickers for my standard brakes and i've got a grinder for the springs.

                              I would if you could still buy them new but it looks like they have stopped making them.
